A quick definition of committee:

A committee is a group of people who are chosen to work together to investigate, discuss, and make decisions about a specific topic or issue. They are often used in organizations, clubs, and governments to help make important decisions and set policies. Committees can be made up of different numbers of people and can have different purposes, such as organizing a meeting space or overseeing financial reporting. Sometimes, a committee can be made up of just one person, while other times it can include all members of a group.

A more thorough explanation:

A committee is a group of people who are appointed or elected to perform a specific task or make decisions on behalf of a larger organization or assembly. They are responsible for investigating, overseeing, and taking action on matters referred to them by the organization they represent.

  • Legislative Committee: A committee in charge of reviewing and making recommendations on proposed laws.
  • Audit Committee: A committee responsible for overseeing the financial reporting process of an organization and selecting an independent auditor.
  • Arrangements Committee: A committee responsible for organizing the physical space in which a deliberative assembly meets.

These examples illustrate how committees are used in different organizations to carry out specific tasks and responsibilities. They are an essential part of the decision-making process and help ensure that the organization operates efficiently and effectively.
